Ikat is in

Do check out my other guest post here. It is for a dear friend. This is the link to her blog.

Now my today's post- Ikat.The word “ikat” means “to bind.” It is a very ancient way of creating designs in fabric by resist-dyeing the threads before the fabric is woven. It’s just one of those fabrics that never goes out of style. Ikat (both the traditional weave as well as in it’s mimicked digital print form) . Whether it be on clothing, on upholstery or on tableware, I love it. :)Ikat prints are really in and all international designers have taken a fancy to it. Here is me wearing an Ikat print dress by Bebe.
